Dolphins Guard Isaiah Wynn Suffers Major Setback Ahead of Return
Miami Dolphins guard Isaiah Wynn has encountered an unexpected hurdle in his road to recovery. The 27-year-old, who has been sidelined for months due to a nagging quadriceps injury, was gearing up for a highly anticipated return to the lineup when a recent setback dashed those plans.
Team sources revealed that Wynn aggravated his injury during a practice session earlier this week. “Isaiah was making excellent progress,” said Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel. “This is a tough blow for him and the team. We’ll continue to support him in every way possible.”
Wynn’s absence has been a significant challenge for Miami’s offensive line, which has struggled to maintain consistency this season. Signed in the offseason to bolster the unit, Wynn’s versatility and experience were expected to play a pivotal role in protecting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.
The setback means the Dolphins will now need to rely on backup options, with Robert Jones and Lester Cotton likely to step into expanded roles. Despite the disappointment, Wynn remains optimistic about his long-term recovery. “I’ll come back stronger,” he said in a brief statement.
The Dolphins, currently eyeing a playoff push, will need to adapt quickly as they navigate this latest adversity.
